    Disconnecting the webcam and microphone from the motherboard is another effective countermeasure against spying. In some cases, it's as easy as peeling away/unsnapping the bezel around a laptop's screen and unhooking the ribbon cable leading into the webcam.

    I've had to replace only two laptop cases in my 31 years of living, so I know where to look for flex cables and whatnot. :yes:

    I use a black electrical tape slightly bigger circle than the web cam so it covers it nicely and will not peel off.

    I even do that on my Smart Phones on the front camera lens.

    I'm sure you know that the Federal Reserve doesn't print money. The Treasury does--a governmental entity.. The Fed controls the interest rate to keep inflation, etc controlled. They are an economic tool.
